I’m not in the senate, so when I call you all pathetic losers that’s an external recrimination

One reason that Trump gets favorable treatment from political reporters is that he’s the only president who understands policy at the same level they do

Alito and Thomas are (1) all the way and Roberts and Kavanaugh are simply too stupid to understand that (1) does not equal (2) in this case, so it'll at least be close

Interesting case sitting at the inflection point to the two primary legal principles currently guiding SCOTUS: (1) Donald Trump is always right and (2) we must help Donald Trump at all costs

Oh you like Zohran Mamdani? Well what if I told you he didn’t want to talk to some random dipshit?

Man alive. The contrast between the courage of voters and the absolute cowardice of Democratic leadership is just undeniable and the story of the moment.

The question is which will win out in the end and that question just got a whole lot louder.

I do think yesterday’s results reinforced the dynamic that while much of the American leadership class is chickenshit, most of the electorate is not

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Not a hard question, except for the culture that pretends it's not the answer

1) right-wing media lies incessantly, so anyone truth-based doesn't trust it, and anyone who trusts it doesn't trust anything else

2) other media treats those lies as legitimate, for "fairness," getting trust from no one

To be fair, he might be stupid enough to have actually believed it. Remember, his delicate brain would shatter if he tried to vote and do his job at the same time

Remember when @peterbakernyt.bsky.social pretended to believe it was an impeachable offense that a neurologist who had visited the White House since 2012 continued to visit the White House in 2024?

one thing thats kinda crazy to get your head around is not that the musk and thiel masters of the universe are ungrateful for the vast public infrastructure, public funding of research, and robust systems of laws and rules that made their wealth possible. it's that theyre too dumb to understand it
